Jerry Richardson is a great owner.

To those of you who say, "Jerry is a great businessman but a terrible owner," you are morons. Jerry is a great owner. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the NFL is a business. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.

Any owner who says his number one objective isn't the bottom line is a dirty liar. It is a business. Winning means nothing to owners or players. Sure, players may feel down after a loss or spew a bunch of poo when talking to a camera. But guess what, once they go home to their mansions they couldn't give two shits.

Jerry is the best owner in the NFL. He is a genius. He created PALs. He placed a franchise in a massive market full of loyal fans. He also knew transpants would fill his stadium once loyal fans got tired of the losing.

When winning will impact the bottom line more than Here'ss current plan we will win. Until then, who cares. Big Cat is making bank.

Don't like it? Cry a river, buy your own team, or possibly get a life that doesn't revolve around a meaningless game.

Again, the NFL is just a business like any other. Thinking otherwise is foolish.

Winning on the field.....is more important to some owners than others. That includes all professional sports.

Some put a greater emphasis on it because making money just isn't enough for them. I don't think that can be argued.

I am a fan.....so I don't really care about JR's pie chart. That is for his investors to care about. From a fans perspective.... JR hasn't gotten it done. So no, he isn't the best owner in the NFL.

Winning will eventually impact the bottom line, look at Jacksonville...

Jacksonville still brings in a large profit annually.

Jacksonville was in the top half for attendance last season.

Jacksonville can't keep their shelves stocked with merchandise featuring their new logo.

Jacksonville could at any moment sign The Golden Calf of Bristol and sell an absurd amount of tickets and The Golden Calf of Bristol gear.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
